Vig, short for vigorish, is the sportsbook’s built in fee. It is the reason you often see both sides of a bet priced at -110.
The vig is how sportsbooks get paid.
Simple Example
If you bet -110, you risk 110 to win 100.
That extra 10 is the friction.
Vig means you need to win more than 50 percent just to break even on -110 bets. You do not need to memorize formulas. Just remember this.
Vig makes small edges disappear.
That is why you need real probability based decisions and the best number available.
